Doctors have long suspected that excess fat around the belly?as opposed to the thighs or hips?increases the chances of developing heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes. Apparently, abdominal fat doesn't just lie there and jiggle. It actively promotes ill health by, among other things, pumping out inflammatory proteins and interfering with the body's ability to use insulin...
...tall island topped by a grove of trees clinging to its craggy head, a fine spray flaring around it. It is our high point; after that the rapids dwindle, and we paddle hard over long flat stretches for the next two days between sharp limestone banks where snakes lie warming in the sun.

The slogan is of course all wrong. Not only does it flagrantly contradict the facts of recent history in Iraq under Saddam Hussein, but it is also propaganda of the worst kind, a lie that no one who knows what the situation really was like would or could...
